  1. I had a XL Cannondale F29 Frame and found it a little too big for me, nothing serious - I still rode and raced it for three years. I am 1.81m tall and ended up getting a large which is perfect. So in answer to your question I think the XL for you at 1.87m tall should work.
  2. Time to unleash my Frankendale on this thread. 2013 Cannondale Carbon Flash frame - Lefty upgraded to a 2020 Ocho Lefty by Dr Lefty in Centurion. Love this bike !!
  3. Damn - not good news - were super helpful and the shop always had a decent range of stuff. They also managed to sort out an ongoing issue on my bike. Will be missed

    Thats why NZ was so quick to dump us - scared we would officially win the trophy

    Will be a refreshing change to see out top teams in Europe, wonder when the final decision will be made, listening to Jourie Roux on the radio this morning from SA Rugby seems like Super Rugby has gone to the big stadium in the sky as far as SA and Argentina are concerned.

    If NZ and Aus get their way Otherwise its Pro 16 here we come - looks like only room for four SA teams though !!
  7. Nelspruit to Graskop via Hendriksdal and Sabie - that would be a cool one to ride through the forests !! Plus you can stop at Hendriksdal for something to eat and even overnight if required.
  8. I know how the Liverpool fans feel !!!!
  9. Funny So this year we are having our best year ever and on top of the log and this virus thing hits
  10. Have not been watching too much TV since I can't see the Sharks thumping other teams or decent cycling but the missus and myself have been watching Evil - different and creepy.
  11. Sabie Classic used to be one of the premier MTB events in the country, sad to see the numbers declining every year, still my favourite MTB part of the country. I see they have moved the start from York timbers sports grounds ( Stunning Venue) to Castle Rock camping ground. Looks like we will have mud !!
  12. Phil is to cycling what Murray Walker was to F1. Yes they both get/got it wrong plenty times especially when things got exciting but they are legends !!
  13. Thanks Dale. So cool to see one of the big roadie teams doing something different
  14. Cant wait to see the team out in action again. Go EF !!!!!!!!!!
  15. Was never online - you have to go to your closest store. I think all the Trail fives are gone. Some of the stores still have Trail sevens left - same frame but lower spec/grade components. For the price still a good buy - just upgrade the components as you wear them out or strip them and build a Monsterdale.
  16. Welcome to both the Hub and Cannondale Prosper
  17. Very Cool Build I also want to transfer and mix and match some of the parts on my daughters new Makrodale but have to wait for after Christmas when Father Christmas has delivered it - hope he can get it down the chimney. Its currently hidden in a store room in the back garden.

    Well done to the Cheetahs on their victory - doubly deserved that they stay in the Currie Cup after being shafted by SA Rugby.
  20. Depends on mileage, how hard you ride, riding conditions, maintenance and cleaning schedule etc. If you look after the bike, clean and regular maintenance you will get good mileage out of the stock components.
  21. Its the same frame which is very good and received excellent reviews. For a beginner this will be a perfect bike and as the components wear out you can then upgrade to a higher spec. component. But in the meantime get the bike and enjoy your time outside.

    He is only allowed to shave it off once the Old Man says he is happy with his level of play. We will have to see now that Natal have the Currie Cup again if the Old Man relents.

    Hell - if that kick had gone over after the Bulls scored that try just before Full Time we would have been playing them in Durban - was very close.
